it's a samsung TV. from a cursory google, it seems like the tidal app on the samsung TV os only draws down the hifi/CD-quality stream (no MQA). I can probably learn to live with that to be honest - this setup was originally meant to be vinyl only but just thought I'd try add in streaming because why not (plus I bagged a 6 month free tidal trial via)

It would work, but depending on the hardware spec of your TV you might not be able to squirt full resolution MQA down the optical fibre. The mandatory spec is 48kHz/20bit, the fibre itself can easily handle 96kHz/24bit but only if your TV manufacturer has bothered to install a transmitter with that much bandwidth.
